    An Amazing Experience!

    Paula Rodriguez-Negron, a 3rd-year film and TV production student at York St John. Originally from Florida, moved to England to pursue her passion for filmmaking. This was the first set where Paula was able to direct a script that she had c0-written and loved working with the actors. "I'm grateful to be surrounded by a team of experienced individuals who have been supportive throughout the process. I'm always eager to learn more about the film industry and expand my horizons."

    'Spurn Point' Lighthouse : A Testing Location

    Filming at Spurn Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve was challenging, but it was also a lot of fun. The lighthouse, where we were based, is cut off by the tide twice a day. Stay tuned for more behind the scenes shots and insights into how the edit is going (it's going great!) Thanks to the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust for their kind support.

    Projects

    Co-creation in context

    Educational project development and management can be overwhelming. We thrive on creating holistic solutions that address a root cause. If you have a project that you need to bring into a local context, I can guide your team through that process before implementation or as part of a pilot launch.
